Blackfeather Woods Switch the light off, welcome to the night

Alrighty. Last post from me. Guessing we can assume they met with Mel, and she brought up the distance and how waiting for the trip would be better. c:

The man was glad to have been asked of the woman's name. It was odd speaking of her without addressing who she was directly, but for some reason he'd found himself continuing on that way—up until he was asked for her name, of course. He would not ignore the boy's request to know. “Her name is Scarlett,” he told the little shadow, a lightness to his voice as it formed the name. It was nearly impossible to keep such a tone from arising when he spoke of her, as she had become something similar to a light for him. Actually, perhaps it would be better to refer to her as his sun, for she'd unknowingly made herself the center of his universe without even trying. It was almost laughable how things worked like that, and had it not happened to him, perhaps he would have actually laughed at the thought of it.

Kove was soon reminded of their previous conversation, as if he would ever be allowed to forget it, and rose up to his paws. He chuckled at the younger wolf, his eagerness contagious. “Alright, let's go,” he voiced, though by the time the words had left his mouth, the boy had already taken off. Not needing to be told twice, he quickly followed after him, looking forward to hearing the Queen's thoughts on her son going on a little trip. He never considered that fact that the journey might be too far for Damien at the moment, though he would most likely be reminded of that within the moments to come.
